Author collective: more colour for ‘white areas’

Photo

So-called ‘weisse Flächen’ or ‘white areas’ are those spaces that are left free of buildings in the vicinity of residential developments. Children, adolescents and adults who live near white areas are being invited to redesign these to meet their own specific local needs. There are various experts from whom they can obtain support in this participation process, while useful advice, examples and addresses are provided in the brochure. The publication also shows what is required to successfully implement a citizen’s initiative-based plan for the creation of open spaces and recreational facilities and what sort of hurdles will need to be overcome in the shape of the regulations imposed by town planning, public garden maintenance and social/child welfare authorities. The brochure’s editorial group was supervised by the ‘Verein Spiellandschaft Stadt e.V.’. In addition to various of Munich’s local authority organisations (public park maintenance, public planting, urban planning and child welfare), the ‘Spiellandschaft Stadt’ collective, the ‘Urbanes Wohnen’ association and the ‘Grüne Schul - und Spielhöfe’ and ‘entwickeln planen kommunizieren’ teams contributed to the brochure. The brochure is available free of charge from the Child Information Office of the ‘Spiellandschaft Stadt’ agency in Munich (Albrechtstr. 37, 80636 Munich,
089 183335, info@spiellandschaft.de). It can be supplied by post at a cost of €3.
